Film | Labors of Love: The Life and Legacy of Henrietta Szold
Henrietta Szold is among the most influential American Jewish women who ever lived. After founding Hadassah in 1912, she became a major force in early twentieth-century Palestine, establishing its healthcare system and shaping its education system. In a crowning achievement, Szold helped organize Youth Aliyah, which successfully rescued thousands of Jewish children from Germany and Nazi-occupied Europe during the 1930s and transported them to Palestine. Dir. Abby Ginzberg (US, 2025, 79 min) Screening followed by Q+A.
